With a Felony WEAPONS conviction I can assure you that you will not be allowed to use ANY firearm or even a Black Powder Firearm, regardless of what the others have told you. Your State Department of Corrections, and States Attorneys Office or State Prosecutorial Office would be the ones to approach and inquire about the possibilities of you being allowed to hunt. There are NO pardons or waivers issued in ANY state for a felony conviction involving weapons. I know of only one case in Arizona that a convicted felon was allowed to hunt with a Bow & Arrow, but it was only granted because he had a felony conviction for embezzeling money..a non-violent offense, and he was only allowed to hunt AFTER he served his full sentence and his supervised probation period.

i know someone who has a felony weapons conviction and when i go out deer hunting with my shotgun he goes out with a muzzleloader. i think it is just the state that i live in but in NH they think of a muzzleloader as a primitve weapon and he can use that hunting also people are allowed to use bow and arrow in my state

Sorry but the way the Dems have the laws all screwed up now. The 2nd ammendment doens't protect us from anything. And a felony conviction means you can NOT get a license to hunt with anything.
Thank the Dems.

With a felony conviction you are not allowed to posses a gun (even if it is owned by someone else). I would check with your local law enforcement agency and ask if you can possess a bow and arrows.

Talk to your P.O.
(Even if you are off the books now.)
He can tell you if there is any option still open to you.
Some states allow felons to hunt with special permission.
If the crime was comitted years ago, especially if it was commited when you were under 18, you may be eligible for an expungment of your record by the Governers office, which would restore your hunting, firearms, and voting rights,
(But being a weapons violation, I'd not hold my breath on this one.)
Like I said,
Ask the P.O.
I suspect bowhunting may still be an option to you.
Good luck, and stay outta trouble.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think you could use a bow. Maybe a muzzleloader (I doubt it though). I read somewhere that they are primative weapons. Check your local laws though. You're best bet would be to contact the police department and ask to be on the safe side.

although prohibited from owning, or even being around a firearm, you can use a black powder rifle. The ATF has ruled that black powder rifles are not a firearm. But, I'm not sure you could get a hunting license. You have to check with fish and game for that answer.

Stand on a cliff, and when one walks below you throw a basketball sized rock on it (cave man style)
seriously though, I think you will need a pardon to use firearms even for hunting
